Children's Food Past Sell-by Date

Guest · 2006-01-17T12:29:41+0000

This is a problem I've not encountered before. We're open for full daycare, and the arrangement is that children bring in packed lunches. We give guidance on what might be suitable, safe storage etc. Today a new child had a 'Heinz Mum's Own' casserole which we were asked to microwave at lunch time as per the instructions on the packing. When we came to do so, we noticed that it was out of date in September. At that point I made a telephone call to see if Mum was happy for me to give it to the child as I didn't want the responsiblity, frankly, and I don't yet know them very well. Mum telephoned back saying it would be fine. Do you think I now need to add this sort of incident into my policies somehow? I think instructing staff to check the use before dates when handed such things would be a good idea,too, so that it could be discussed before parents left if necessary. Has anyone else encountered anything like this? Any thoughts appreciated.
